A deep garnet-ruby core with a luminous rim and glimpses of brick developing. A bouquet of fresh red cherries and raspberries, intertwined with violet florals, a hint of forest-floor undergrowth and subtle spice (white pepper, clove). A fine stony/limestone mineral note emerges on aeration.

Medium to full-bodied, with polished yet firm tannins and lively acidity. The red-fruit core (cherry, wild raspberry) carries through, layered with deeper plum tones, fine cedar/vanilla oak nuance and a gentle smoky graphite trace. A mineral thread runs under the whole wine, giving it structure and focus. The finish is long, elegant and refined, leaving an echo of red fruit and subtle salinity rather than overt oak richness.
